Food & Liquid Is A No No I Need Help

TAB · June 26, 2007

I'm having the hardest time with eating with no liquid, Every time I eat, I have liquid close by and end up drinking during my meal. I've gotten food stuck & I felt is if I was going to choke without the Water to push it down. Sometmes I spit up when I'm too full, or eat too fast, or It's just not going down. Does anyone else have this problem with liquid and meals? :help:

Something that my doctor suggested: he said if you must have something to drink while you eat, fill a glass with ice and have it next to you with your meal. Whatever melts while you're sitting there, you can sip on -- that way it won't be too much to wash the food through, but yet you can get a little wetness in also.

Prebanding, I was one of those ppl that had refill after refill, now I get a glass of Water with my meal and a to go cup with ice, so I can take it with me when I leave, much more enjoyable after you leave.

Just remember if you drink with your meal, you're pushing your food through and encouraging that stuck feeling and you'll lose that full feeling a lot faster.

Drinking and eating isn't a problem for me......one sip and everything comes up. I can throw Water up at any temperature. I drink Propel and Special K protien water.......When we go out to dinner with friends I have a Cappuccino

when they are all drinking. Caffine is my drug of choice. It keeps me from wanting bread. Bread is another bad choice. Sometime I chew a garlic knot for taste....but never swallow it......then the night would be over for me.That would get stuck in a NY minute.
